He has been saying mama and dada for awhile, but just recently he started saying a couple other things. He's been saying "Uh oh" when things fall to the floor. Usually it's his sippy cup, which he's thrown to the floor from his high chair. He's also been known to throw things down the basement stairs through the cat door and then say "Uh oh." Clearly we need to teach him that "Uh oh" only applies when things fall accidentally! He's also started saying "Buh-bye" and waving. The absolute cutest thing though, is sometimes after doing that, he'll kiss his hand and kind of blow it at you. I hope I can catch that on video so I can share it with you, because it's one of my favorite things he does!
Jay still loves being read to. His current favorite book at daycare is Brown Bear, Brown Bear. We have a copy at home and he's happy to look in it here too. Other things he likes: opening and closing doors, putting things in and taking things out of pretty much anything, playing with all his new toys, being pushed in the car, petting/harassing the pets, "talking", taking baths, pushing chairs around, playing with bowls and spoons and climbing the stairs.
He's become a pickier eater. That started after he recovered from the RSV, though I'm not sure it's related. He used to try pretty much anything we'd put in front of him, but now he sometimes won't even try things that he used to eat. Very frustrating. He still loves fruit and we can pretty much count on him eating that, but he needs more nutritional variety!
Here's a video of him from earlier. You can see him demonstrate two of his favorite things :)
